Trump vows to ignore UN, recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital

GOP nominee Donald Trump released a statement late Thursday evening repeating his promise that his administration would recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

"I have said on numerous occasions that in a Trump Administration, the United States will recognize Jerusalem as the one true capital of Israel," Trump said in a statement made available to the Washington Examiner.

Trump reiterated his vow just hours after the U.N. cultural agency passed a resolution Thursday dismissing Jerusalem's cultural ties to the Western Wall and the Temple Mount, Judaism's most sacred site.

"The United Nations' attempt to disconnect the State of Israel from Jerusalem is a one-sided attempt to ignore Israel's 3,000-year bond to its capital city, and is further evidence of the enormous anti-Israel bias of the UN. Jerusalem is the enduring capital of the Jewish People and the overwhelming majority of Congress has voted to recognize Jerusalem as just that," the GOP nominee's statement continued.

Trump added, "Further, the decision by the Obama Administration to strike the word 'Israel' after the word 'Jerusalem' in the President's prepared text was a capitulation to Israel's enemies, and a posthumous embarrassment to Shimon Peres, whose memory the President was attempting to honor. In a Trump Administration, Israel will have a true, loyal and lasting friend in the United States of America."

The Republican candidate's statement Thursday evening also comes just hours after he drew criticism from the president of the Anti-Defamation League for claiming at a campaign rally that the banks and media are conspiring against his candidacy.

"For those who control the levers of power in Washington and for the global special interests," Trump said Thursday at a rally in Florida. "Our campaign represents a true existential threat like they haven't seen before."

"There is nothing the political establishment will not do, no lie that they won't tell to hold their prestige and power at your expense," he added. "And that's what has been happening. The Washington establishment, and the financial and media corporations that fund it, exist for only one reason, to protect and enrich itself.

He then explained the intricate connection between bankers, the media and lawmakers in the nation's capital.

I'm also voting for Trump... In fact I am going to see if I can be like the minorities and vote a few times...    That's how much I want Trump to win over the devil he is running against.
